Council Staff

We will now hear testimony from the administration.

Before we begin, I will administer the affirmation.

Council Staff

Panelists, please raise your right hand.

Council Staff

I will read the affirmation once, then call on each of you individually to respond.

Council Staff

Do you affirm to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth before this committee, and to respond honestly to council member questions?

Council Staff

We'll start on this side.
